Why Deliveroo?

When you first think about Deliveroo, you probably think of getting great food to your house in less than half an hour.

Awesome right?

But behind the scenes is the real story.

This story is one of high growth, huge challenges and an enormous opportunity ahead of us.

We want to be the definitive food company - the app you go to any time you have a hunger pang.

We are transforming the way people think about food.

We're a technology driven company at the forefront of the most rapidly expanding industry in the world, so come and join us for the ride.

**The Role

We are looking for a field based Business Development Manager.

This is a rare opportunity to become a founding and critical member of a rapidly growing, well-funded startup.

You'll be liaising with Italy's most premium and highly regarded restaurants.

As a member of the local sales team, your role will focus on developing new relationships with restaurants.

This is a role for an intelligent, motivated, self starter to develop their sales career for a leading company within its market sector.

More specifically, you will:

- Map, prospect, pitch and close new restaurants across your region in a very methodical and organised fashion.

This means being a city level expert including knowing the up and coming restaurants and which restaurants customers crave most

- Help restaurant owners / managers overcome any barriers or hesitations

- Attend restaurant and food meet ups

**Requirements**:

- You must be comfortable with targeting new business and have proven Sales Experience

- Ability to persuasively demonstrate product and industry knowledge to clients is a must

- You will need to be comfortable with negotiations

- Knowledge of the restaurant industry is a significant plus

- You will need to be tenacious and self motivated

We are looking for someone based in Veneto.

This is a 12-months fixed-term contract.

**Life at Deliveroo

We are a growing team, with very large impact, seeking to answer some of the most interesting questions out there.

We move fast, we're always looking for new ideas and we're very transparent about the decisions we make and why we make them.

There are so many questions we need to answer and plenty more we haven't even encountered.

How do data and technology help restaurants to grow as consumer habits change?

How can we predict what someone wants to order for dinner long before the idea has even crossed their mind?

At Deliveroo these are just some of the tough problems we are solving - and there is no challenge that cannot be yours.

No solution is owned by a particular team, which means the scope for growth and personal impact is enormous.

**Benefits and Diversity

At Deliveroo we know that people are the heart of the business and we prioritise their welfare.

We offer a wide range of competitive benefits in areas including health, family, finance, community, convenience, growth, time away and relocation.

In 2018 we announced our decision to give every employee equity in the company.

We did this because we wanted all of our employees, regardless of location, level or role to be owners and because we believe that this is the right thing to do.

We believe this helps build a culture where everyone is committed and able to share in the company's success.

We believe a great workplace is one that represents the world we live in and how beautifully diverse it can be.

That means we have no judgement when it comes to any one of the things that make you who you are - your gender, race, sexuality, religion or a secret aversion to coriander.

All you need is a passion for (most) food and a desire to be part of one of the fastest growing start-up's around.
